Edit | Delete Report Comment Dweezil wrote on Jul 30, 2011 at 03:13 PMIf we have intermissions it is always because the venue requires it. I personally don't care for the intermissions and would never put one in the show intentionally.

As far as Glenn is concerned, sorry you didn't like the show. I'll politely disagree with you about the uninspired guitar playing. I actually had fun experimenting with a lot of different things that night. I liked what I heard when I listened back to the show.

Unfortunately your download comment reveals your own personal sense of entitlement regarding this project. There's a lot that goes into making all of this possible for people, certainly not just you.

Glenn wrote on Jul 30, 2011 at 04:25 PMHey Dweezil, so glad you responded. I was stating my opinion of the concert, whether it be positive or negative, and do feel personal entitlement to do that.

As far as being entitled to the downloads of the concerts, I have to disagree. You were the one who promised the downloads. You were the one who promised the dates they would be released. It's been years and still nothing. It has also been quite some time since we have had an update on the subject.

If you believe that promising your concert goers downloads, never coming through and voicing my disappointment in empty promises for years is a personal entitlement that I and others don't deserve, then there's really nothing more to say.

It's been Dweezil's attitude towards these downloads that really made me so angry I don't care about Dweezil anymore, and I tel you that's a deep fall from the high pedestal he was on. How can you promise something to become available within a week and not offer it for years? If Don van Vliet had been at that show he'd never have seen his downloads.

My suggestion? Lawsuit. Dweezil sold it, he made a contract with everybody who went to the theatre, he fails to comply... Sue him.

I've thought about that (that a class action lawsuit would be appropriate). Not for me - I didn't go to those shows but the people who did have a right to be pissed. I've derided Desiel Dummy/Darn Accordians for making such a big deal about it but he's right on this one. What did the tickets cost for those shows - $250.00 or something like that. Dweezil acted like a politician trying to spin it some other way. No doubt things didn't go the way Dweezil planned but he should have made things right by offering partial refunds or a free ticket to a future show. A download to another show doesn't cut it. He botched this one big time.

Think I paid 125.00 to see Dweezil on the download tour, an insane amount of money for a rock concert, but it was an impulse purchase, went to the theater door day of show to buy. Still, I forgive him for not coming through. I don't really care, didn't go to the show to get a d/l anyway.

No response yet ! Stay tuned !

Wow - what a shit-E thing for Mr. Z to say.... I agree with you Glenn....

Well, we don't see what language Glenn uses to criticize the download stuff. Maybe it has been on the harsh side, thereby triggering this exceptional nonsense from Dweezil.

I cannot see why he just don't apologize for the never-to-come downloads and then move on. They will never come. He promised them (and even made people pay for them to some extent?), and didn't deliver. People have every right to be pissed. Well, Dweezil shows an exceptional amount of arrogance towards fans by this answer and by this whole, otherwise minor, deal. Grow up!

When Frank was arrogant, he was cool. When DZ is arrogant, it's just annoying. He can't help that, because he's built that way.

I don't believe we'll ever see the downloads, unless they somehow get booted. Dweezil doesn't have the time, doesn't prioritize or fund this project, and clearly just got in way over his head on this one.

The graceful way out is to simply come clean and say, "I am sorry. I made promises I can't keep. I can't deliver this project to you, but to show my good faith, I will do ____________________________ to make it up to my fans.

Then, DZ will no longer be a Flake (California's got the most of them), and return to the domain of the good guys.

_________________Everytime we picked a booger we'd flip it on this one winduh. Every night we'd contribute, 2, 3, 4 boogers. We had to use a putty knife, man, to get them damn things off the winduh. There was some goober ones that weren't even hard...

I agree with a lot of this and like the way it was expressed... thanks.

HJ, why didn't I see you say this on the Dweezil board?

My problem with Dweezil is that it has been a consistent factor, whether it was on the Incident With The Name I Cannot Mention On This Forum When Dweezil Put Private E-mail On His Blog (both by posting e-mail and by his attitude on it), this whole thing with downloads, the whole thing with cover bands, or when someone suggested him not to play his own music and he gave a total shit reaction... He's kicked away his own pedestal for me.

Probably true. Well, BBP I can't be expected to use the exact same words, but the points I made are the same.

Never mind, to paraphrase DZ on his site, what I say means an Iota in the big picture. Just like the ZPZ does, I may add. There, I think lies the crucial difference with FZ and DZ in terms of music and persona.

In terms of class action lawsuit, his lawyers could argue the digital download was merely advertising puff, and not intended to be taken seriously, however, the applicants could argue that the mere fact that he recorded every show in multi-tracks implies he had put forth an effort to actually follow through on his promise, making it a legally binding contract. Food for thought, I'm still waiting on my download. I couldn't even make it to the show sadly as life dick slapped me just before it happened, but I had always hoped that at least I'd get a recording of the show as an EXTREMELY expensive digital download for my 125 bones or whatever it was.
